Abstract: | We describe three sporadic ALS patients in which a D11Y SOD1 mutation was detected. All three patients disclosed a prolonged survival and a stereotypical distal limbs involvement in the initial stages of the disease. By this report we demonstrate that D11Y SOD1 mutation is associated with a peculiar phenotype and we confirm its probable pathogenetic role. |
